Celeron N4100 vs Core i7-4710HQ comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-4710HQ performs better than the Celeron N4100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Celeron N4100 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-4710HQ has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-4710HQ has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Celeron N4100. A Celeron N4100 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4710HQ CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Celeron N4100 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
